How to do risk mapping

Good organizing means taking strategic risks. A risk assessment
34+
isn't about eliminating risk, it helps your group take bolder
35+
action with clearer eyes by naming what you're actually facing,
36+
deciding what matters most, and choosing what's worth preparing
37+
for. It works best done with a few people on your team.
38+
</p>
39+
<p className="mb-3">
40+
<span className="font-medium text-rm-ink">Name the risks.</span> Be
41+
concrete: <em>who</em> could do <em>what</em>. ("A
42+
counter-protester could try to provoke a fight." "Police
43+
could arrest participants for trespassing." "A leader
44+
could be doxxed because their name is on the sign-up page.")
45+
Don't try to list every possibility. Focus on what feels
46+
concerning for this group, this action, this place, this moment.
47+

<p className="mb-3">
49+
<span className="font-medium text-rm-ink">
50+
Place each risk by impact and likelihood.
51+
</span>{" "}
52+
Impact is how bad it would be if it happened. Likelihood is how
53+
likely it is to actually happen for a group like yours. If you're
54+
unsure how likely something is, ask people doing similar work in
55+
your area. Grounding the estimate in real experience pulls you
56+
out of reactive fear.
57+
</p>
58+
<p className="mb-3">
59+
<span className="font-medium text-rm-ink">Add mitigations.</span>{" "}
60+
Under each categorized risk, brainstorm two kinds of action: ways
61+
to <em>reduce the likelihood</em> it happens (vet new members, use
62+
Signal, secure your accounts) and ways to{" "}
63+
<em>prepare to respond</em> if it does (know-your-rights training,
64+
exit routes, legal hotline saved). Star the most important ones to
65+
surface them in the Actions panel as your shortlist of what to
66+
actually go do.
